A few important reminders, particularly pertaining to arrival and dismissal time.

While you are on Saint James School property, to ensure everyone’s safety, masks are required.  Even outside at arrival or dismissal time, we are still in close contact and are trying to be exceptionally vigilant for the health and safety of our staff and students.

Also, as a reminder, we do not allow dogs (or other pets) on our property during morning drop-off and afternoon dismissal.

The safety of our students, families, and staff continues to be our number one priority.  Thank you for your cooperation and attention to these items.

Please pass this information along to any family members/caregivers not in our email group but take part in dropping off or picking up.

East Catholic, Mercy High School, and Xavier High School would all like to email you information about their schools, such as open house dates, admissions information, etc.  If you do NOT want to receive information from them via email, please email Amy Guenther at aguenther@saintjamesschool.net by Monday morning to opt out.

If you do not Opt Out, Saint James School will send them your email address so they can share relevant information with you (of course you can always opt out of their communications in the future).

Saint James School welcomes Mr. Tyler Lucey in the role of general music teacher (K-8).  Mr. Lucey has been teaching music and music theory at Soli Music in Essex Vermont since 2014.  His specialties in this capacity were guitar, voice, piano, ukulele, drums, and cello.  During this time, Mr. Lucey has also been involved in numerous other music programs including an after school program music with Burlington (VT) public schools.  We look forward to having Mr. Lucey on staff to share his knowledge and passion for music with our K-8 learners.

With the temperature expected to be quite warm again tomorrow all students are welcome to wear their GYM UNIFORM ATTIRE again tomorrow (Thursday).

On behalf of the administration, faculty, and staff of Saint James School, THANK YOU for your ongoing support of our school and being part of our awesome community as we adjust to a “new normal.”  We thank you for your patience and understanding as we work through new processes and a myriad of new technology.  The first day certainly wasn’t without some technology hiccups, but we have been working to address those throughout the day and I’m sure we will continue to make tweaks during this first week.
